2019 Beaumont (Haut-Medoc)
Secondary Description
Fuller and firmer than I was expecting, with plum, chocolate and liquorice; there`s a sweetness to the fruit, but no suggestion it is overripe or hot. Supple tannins, smooth and creamy texture. Probably at its best 5-10 years after vintage. (NT 07/06/20)

Neal Martin
The 2019 Beaumont has a delineated, fresh, cedar and pencil lead infused bouquet, lifted black fruit, light tobacco scents that emerge with time. The palate is medium-bodied with slightly brusque tannins on the entry, but I appreciate the edginess and tension of this wine and the grip it exerts on the finish. Worth seeking out. Tasted blind at the Southwold annual tasting. 91
